| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Description]
Arachidonoyl-2'-fluoroethylamide (2-fluoro AEA) is an analog of anandamide in which the alcohol of the ethanolamide group has been removed and replaced with a fluorine atom. This substitution adds considerably increased binding affinity for the CB1 receptor (Kis = 26.7 and 908 nM for CB1 and CB2, respectively). It also contributes additional selectivity, in that binding to CB2 is decreased relative to AEA.1 However, the in vivo activity of 2-fluoro AEA is enhanced much less than the binding affinity, because the analog remains a good substrate for FAAH and is rapidly hydrolyzed by this enzyme. | [Uses]
Arachidonoyl-2'-fluoroethylamide is a CB1 receptor agonist and an analog of Anandamide (A637220), which is an endogenous cannabinoid and TRPV1 receptor agonist. | [in vivo]
Arachidonoyl 2'-fluoroethylamide (0.25% (w/v) 25 μl) induces IOP (intraocular pressure) initially increased and then decreased in rabbit[1]. | Animal Model: | 2.6-3.6 kg normotensive pigmented rabbit[1] | | Dosage: | 25 μl (0.25% (w/v)) | | Administration: | Unilateral ocular administration | | Result: | Induced IOP (intraocular pressure) in the treated eye initially increased and then decreased. |
